First seen Mar 22, 2026 · Last updated Apr 24, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study compares two types of nerve blocks used during shoulder surgery to see which one is less likely to temporarily paralyze the diaphragm, the main muscle for breathing. About 70 adults having elective shoulder surgery will be randomly assigned to receive either a standard interscalene block or a newer shoulder PENG block. The main goal is to measure how often diaphragm paralysis occurs 30 minutes after the block is given.
